Do you MOGL?

Since I've been incessantly checking my bank account as of late, I noticed today that there was a random deposit in my checking account for $24.55. Nothing extraordinary, but hey, that can buy me like 4 bottles of wine! (Have I told you how okay I am with drinking cheap wine?)

After looking into this mysterious money a little further, I realized it was my first payout from MOGL!

Several months ago, this lady approached me and The Dizz at a bar and asked us if we knew anything about MOGL. I was mid-gulp with my Bud Light, and I instantly felt the urge to say, "If you're selling something, I don't want it! I'm drinking my beer, now leave me alone."

But instead I basically did the exact opposite and asked, "No, what is this MOGL? Do tell!"

She explained that MOGL is a company that teamed up with hundreds of bars and restaurants all over California. By simply going to a place that's part of the program, spending what you'd normally spend, you end up getting 10% cash back at the end of the month.

That's it. No strings attached!

Trust me, I asked.

You can link as many debit or credit cards to your profile (I did all FIVE of mine) so that no matter which card you end up paying with, it'll still count towards your 10% cash back. Once you make your profile and link your cards, then that's it! You can forget about it. Which, clearly, is exactly what I did. Then, every month, you can find a little surprise in your bank account (or any other card you choose to get paid out on).

And for all you do-gooders out there, if you spend over $20 at whatever restaurant you're at, then MOGL will donate a meal to someone in need within your own community. Pretty cool, huh?

And ANOTHER cool thing is their Jackpot rewards. If you happen to be the top spender at a particular restaurant, then you get an additional bonus in your cash back! I went out for a friend's birthday party last month and ended up spending $150 at the bar (yikes, I know, but that's what happens when alcohol is involved), and turns out I came in 2ND PLACE and won some extra mula! So if you happen to have a favorite place that you frequent all the time, or you get drunk and spend frivolously like me, then chances are you'll have a good shot at winning the jackpot.

Anyway, I thought it was kind of neat and thought I'd share with you!

Might as well get cash back if you're going to be spending money at that place anyway, right?

If you're new to signing up and use my referral code (MichelleLim), then YOU automatically get TEN free bones (That's $10 in case you didn't know)! Not bad, huh? You can just download the app straight on your phone.

I feel like this kind of sounds sales-y, but it's not, I promise! This isn't a sponsored post at all. I just think free money is always welcome and it kind of seems too good to be true. But I promise, it's totally easy to sign up and there's no random hidden fees!

This is great! Thanks for sharing!I wonder if this works all over the World? Like restaurants in other cities across the globe? Restaurants and food are everywhere right?? I'm signing up!Thank you!Tammy
